"Take heavy weather, for example, / and dreams that occur as polarities, / as salt you toss a pinch of over your shoulder;/ beads in a ring to protect you, blue as Russian sage . . ."-from "Sage, Moon and Saturn." Anna Kirwan is also the author of the young adult novel, The Jewel of Life, and the poetry collection, The Alchemist's Retor
